~Rumour~ Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I got my sample of Black Hawk and the boys went absolutely nuts for it. Considering one is a extremely fussy eater. They both love working for pieces of it during training. Will definately be ordering a bag once I finish my current RC one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBL Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I have had my 3 on it for the past week and they love it. One has a sensitive tummy so I just got a 3kg pack to start and see their reaction but so far so good. In fact a 20kg bag showed up this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShesaLikeableBiBear Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Ours are continuing to do well on Black Hawk. Having had them on BH for nearly 2 months I didn't want to switch them back and finish off the x2 15kg bags of Nutro we had here, so gave the Nutro away to a very good friend :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wotan Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 We transitioned to Blackhawk a month ago and all is good. We were using Artemis which we still think is a high quality product (albeit expensive) and would happily go back to it if need be. Although, the value/freshness and delivery service of Blackhawk can't be ignored. Great local product Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest english.ivy Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Updates .. Just curious as to how everyone's dogs are going on Black Hawk? Quite a few of us started feeding it a couple of months ago My two still love eating it and their coats are very shiny! Compared to my OH dogs who eat Advance, my two have a much nice looking coat. I also used to find it hard to keep my Belgian Shepherd at a steady weight, no issues with that anymore. My Pointer pup has put on a great coverage of weight and looks stunning. Though now I think I might have to start feeding him a little less now he's fattened up. I'm due to buy another 20kg bag! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuffles Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Mine have been on BH for a a few weeks now and are doing very well. Their coats have always been pretty good so no difference there but their poops are much smaller so that's good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheena Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 My BC girl is going great on it...lovely shiny soft coat & loves her Black Hawk. I sometimes babysit my daughter's two maltese x's & they are very fussy eaters of kibble. I put out two bowls of BH & went looking for the second dog, not realising the first dog had cleaned up both bowls & was keen for more. I have suggested to my daughter that she buys them some BH, but she claims that her dogs get the farts if they are fed lamb. Has anybody noticed an increase in farts in their dogs. Mine is fine..she is a real lady at the best of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydoo Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Billie loves it. We finished the sample a week ago and am waiting on a reply so we can buy a full bag. I can't smell so not the best person to assess flatulence. OH hasn't said anything so I assume no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gretel Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Mine are doing well on it. In the last bag there were several pieces of another type of food though? I emailed and told Kel about it but haven't had a reply. They were larger, square and a slightly reddish colour. Is this a different variety?

tlc Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 I am onto my second 20 kilo bag and all mine are going great guns. Empty bowls every night. It seems to have stimulated Cooper appetite as I have had trouble with him and food since he was a pup but we went to the vets a couple of weeks ago and the vet said he looked a little bit overweight which he has never been in his life. Overall I am very happy with this food, the quality, the price the service all good!! I have not noticed any other food mixed in with mine so I can't help Gretel.

Maybe just human error hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlc Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Oh I meant to say I haven't noticed any wind with my lot at all. They do drink lots and lots of water after eating thier tea which I have not noticed on other dry foods, (EP and Nutro) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of different dog foods are made at the same factory so I would say that something else has snuck in. I had a green kibble the other day in the Holistic Lamb & Rice.

Skruffy n Flea Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 i've been feeding my two on BH for several months and they both seem to be doing well on it --- i've cut back on the suggested quantity to help with some weight loss and that too has been successful i started my cat on BH about a month ago but i'm still feeding half/half advance/BH so i don't think i can comment on BH benefits just yet... neither of my dogs seem to have an issue with gas less, but good output too from both species Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShesaLikeableBiBear Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 We have 8 shelties here, 4 of whom were on the US made Nutro product, until approx 3 years ago, when it was "pulled" from the Australian market. We have tried other products, including the Australian made Nutro, and whilst we have been happy with Nutro, Black Hawk offers us just as much, if not more, in the quality of ingredients. We are more than happy with the results in terms of condition of our dogs coats, stool content, etc etc etc and Black Hawk is cheaper than Nutro, which goes a long way when one has a number of dogs to feed.

OSoSwift Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Mine have been on it a little while now I have noticed no flatulance, Lewis cannot handle raw lamb but has no issues with BH. They do less poos than they did, they have good coat and condition which they had before, I have had to cut down the quantity but that may also be due to the fact they are having a little less exercise due to the humidity and warmer weather. I am very happy with the quality and price, so much so I am now a distributor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
